The contrast of details creates the spectacle of escape
In the film, we see the specific, harsh and brutal process of inspecting the parcels sent by the prison guards. Every loaf of bread is cut open, every sausage is cut open, every piece of butter and cheese is cut into pieces, and every bucket is cut into pieces. The sauce is stirred and each sugar cube is poured roughly, which tells us that there is almost no possibility of transmission from the outside world.
Then we see how the prisoners hide the forbidden and dangerous things, how the little mirror and the saw blade are securely hidden above the skirting board or the edge of the table; how they use the prison
One of the hammocks in the cell as a convenient and effective tool; how people pass things from cell to cell in a completely closed cell -- we see very efficient packet transfers from prison windows.

Wonderful
The scene of the most wonderful drama is: the five prisoners take turns to enter the tunnel they dug, enter the underground corridor, and cut the outlet of the sewer. The illusion that everyone is sleeping peacefully. They even used processed cardboard boxes to make human figures that could be moved by machines to fool the prison guards.
interesting
The interesting character is Gio, who from the beginning is a character who has always slept in his own bed, inattentive, gruff, refusing to cooperate, refusing to join the tight connection of the cell. He refuses to work, refuses to have any communication with everyone, and constantly asks erotic and embarrassing questions inappropriately. The gradual evolution of the character begins when he confesses "I'm not going" to "Your Excellency". When the escape was actually implemented, he didn't leave. He said that my mother cried so sadly when I was arrested. If I escaped, they would go to her again, so I didn't leave. It's not just a choice, it means that as the insider he will bear the full penalty, he will have a longer prison sentence, he will be in a darker and more hopeless situation.
reverse
A playboy who lost all his inheritance, a car dealer who sold cars, married a wealthy girl, then committed adultery with his wife's sister, and had that quarrel with his wife, that fight, that accidental injury
Under the premise of such a story, he participated in the escape operation, and he became more and more involved, more and more integrated into the group, until the dramatic moment appeared. On the eve of the escape, the warden called him to say that your wife dropped the case. Then in this scene there is a cut shot. In the close-up shot, the warden asks: Is there anything you want to tell me? Then there is a long fade, and the picture sinks into darkness.
At the end the warden said: Poor Gaspard. Maybe the warden's dialogue was a trap at all. The news that the warden told his wife to withdraw the case did not exist, or even if his wife dropped the case, he would still be imprisoned, and the warden did not want to help him at all. Just use this despicableness, just use the darkness of human nature.
